However, the idea developed rapidly and quickly outgrew the scope of the usual hobby.In 1997, a group of diving enthusiasts turned into an organization with the official name " Aqua-Don ". Its founder was Alexander Yarmysh, one of the first PADI instructors in Russia. He is one of the few divers in the country who personally knew the creator of this organization, John Cronin.The diving center was established in Rostov-on-Don, which determined its name - "Aqua-Don". Short and capacious, over time it became widely known throughout the South of Russia.The motto of the club - "Dive with the head" - fully reflects the attitude of its organizers to scuba diving. The creators of "Aqua-Don" are all the same enthusiasts that they were 20 years ago, they are absorbed in their favorite thing. The club every year brings together more and more people, helping many to discover the fascinating underwater world for the first time.To date, more than 3,000 students have completed training at the Aqua-Don dive center.
